Few days ago Seesmic got a windows native client and today it is getting a client for Blackberry and Android too, I installed it few minutes ago and here is what may makes it preferable than Twitdroid.
Actually it has a lot of cool stuff that Twidroid does not offer and these are the features I liked about. The most cool one was that we can see which tweet a reply was for and so on, you can track the DMs timeline (sent/received).

An advantage of seesmic too is that it allows you to choose your pictures provider : yFrog, Twitpic or MobyPicture; video provider : yFrog, Twitvid or Youtube; url shortening service with API support for bit.ly while this feature is only available on the paid pro version of Twidroid.
On the other hand what’s good about Twidroid is :
- the design which uses pop menus for options not pages like seesmic
- the small tabs at the bottom also gives more space for tweets and this is an advantage too compared to the big tabs of seesmic.
- Twitdroid makes hashtags with links, means you can click the hashtag to go directly to the search page, seesmic on the other hand do not offer this.
- Twidroid shows twitter lists and you can even manage them in the pro version. seesmic lacks this feature also
- Twitdroid allows you to manage your profile image, bio setting autolocation with gps update and more.
- you can manage more than one account in Twidroid pro
- you can change the skin in Twitdroid pro
- Twitdroid has geolocation, the new native retweet functionality and more more feautures, seesmic lacks all this.
- Twitdroid refresh and update tweets very quickly, seesmic seems very lazy when refreshing tweets.
So what’s your favorite twitter client on Android?
